Cool That's it, I'm GONE !!!
No, not from DPS.
I've survived 35 years at my workplace and today was my last official day at work.
I'M RETIRED !!!
53, retired and lots of time on my hands.
Man, I don't know what I'll do with all that free time. (Wifey hasn't finished her list yet. )
I think I'll just go snap-happy.
Think I should ?
Time to celebrate: I survived my boss !!!

Good on you my friend. My Dad retired and says he can't get a break now. Can't take a vacation from retirement. Enjoy it, you earned it.

Congrats! Now's the time to take all of those "coulda, shoulda's" and give them a decent run...
Hell yeah, go snap happy! What else are you going to do, wear a divot into the couch?

53 , goodness, you've got half your life left at least.

No, 53 is way too young.

Enjoy it while you can. You'll be back.

Cheers,
